Interesting bit here, from another article about this DA review and release -

"After the review hearing, the new DA was convinced the Keller’s trial had not been fair and they were released just before Christmas. She had no intention of putting them back on trial but could not justify to herself to exonerate them without evidence to prove no crime ever happened. That is virtually impossible to accomplish. Between Dr. Mouw, Jordan Smith, and Keith Hampton, who is an attorney that worked without pay for more than six years, the Kellers names have been cleared and they are free to rebuild what they can of their shattered lives.

I'd like to know more about this attorney that worked without pay for 6 years - how exactly does he make a living would be one. Who does he know, and how did they find him? Who else does he represent?

this may be him - Keith Hampton, legislative director of the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers, also served as President of the organization in 2011. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:2Y5uVpgC4LUJ:www.voiceforthedefenseonline.com/newsletters/2010/Apr10.pdf+&cd=9&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=nz

Why was it so important to Keith Hampton to whittle away at this case until he could overturn it? Is he a crusader against a "panic" from a quarter century ago? Why? Aren't there plenty of recent police brutality, shootings, immigration cases and civil rights violation cases in Texas that are more relevant to today's world? Especially since there is supposed to be nothing to all this pizzagate stuff anyway, right?

Check out Keith Hampton's website with a promo for "Southwest of Salem," an Investigation Discovery film involving some of his "best work" about four girls who were accused of satanic sexual child abuse: http://www.keithshamptonlaw.com/ It also mentions that more of his work will be included in a documentary on the Kellers. Here is "Southwest of Salem": https://www.investigationdiscovery.com/tv-shows/southwest-of-salem/ Here is info about a Keller documentary but not sure if it's the one referred to on Hampton's website: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4087350/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_pl Also see: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4087350/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_pl The NY Times review of "Southwest of Salem" says it is shown as a cause for the Innocence Project of Texas and for Debbie Nathan, a journalist also seen in “Capturing the Friedmans,” a film about a Long Island family caught up in sexual-abuse allegations: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/16/movies/southwest-of-salem-review.html Innocence Project of Texas probably has its fingerprints all over Keith Hampton's crusade to protect satanic abusers. His work is not confined to Texas, though, so we need to find out whose else's deep pockets might also also be funding him. It's worth keeping Debbie Nathan in mind as a person of interest too if she's an apologist for abusers. Here is info about "Capturing the Friedmans": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capturing_the_Friedmans Doesn't sound like there was a satanic element in that case.

Here is one respected critic of Nathan and the organization she is wedded to which aides and abets pedos slip from justice - the NCRJ.

This response also documents how Wood, Nathan, and Beck have misapplied the term ritual abuse, misstated the facts of many cases, and promoted “mythical numbers” that significantly exaggerate the number of false convictions. These critics are wrong about the only three cases they discuss in detail. The McMartin Preschool case began with credible evidence of child sexual abuse that continues to be distorted by critics. The Keller case began with even stronger medical evidence that is not diminished by the dubious and incomplete “retraction” of the Emergency Room doctor. The Fuster case involved overwhelming evidence of abuse, medical and testimonial, that continues to be distorted or overlooked by critics. Those who promote the witch-hunt narrative rely on selective use of evidence to reach an apparently predetermined result. That is politics and advocacy, not scholarship. This dismissive approach to children’s testimony has caused documented harm to children.

He has a very meticulously written book on how the "Witch-Hunt Narrative" is made up by those trying to destroy the credible evidence of several important SRA cases and pedo apologists. He also speaks frequently with child protection committees and law enforcement. Glad he is out there.

So glad you found this. It's nice to know someone of this caliber is naming names and following up.
